Grand Theft Auto IV 360 bundle is the worst bundle ever photo

For whatever reason, Microsoft believes saturating the market with bundles will help them win the "console war." With that in mind, there's another one on the way, one to mark the one-year anniversary of Grand Theft Auto IV's release.

But don't get too excited just yet, because what's actually in the box is about as exciting as some rocks and Niko Bellic's pocket lint. The bundle is packed with an Xbox 360 Elite console, a copy of Grand Theft Auto IV, and two stickers. Yes, stickers -- one with the GTA IV logo, the other with the fictional "Liberty City Swingers" logo. And outside of the wires you'll need to hook the system up, that's about it.

While they could have sweetened the deal by throwing in a code for the downloadable The Lost and Damned, they went with stickers instead. That's a good call.

Microsoft has yet to confirm this exciting package, Kotaku has the pictures to prove it. Start saving your money now.

I remember someone winning a custom GTA4 elite, it had The Grand Theft Auto black-and-white letters logo painted on the side. So maybe that could be it?

What the hell? What kind of bundle is that? They could have AT LEAST included the Lost and Damned to complete the set.

In fact, wouldn't the BEST bundle include the best 360 games?
I still think that a Halo 3 and Gears of War 2 bundle is a better idea.

I think Customs in a bundle are unlikely.
Cheap bastards should throw in The Lost and the Damned, it's better than the main storyline.

Hey, you get GTA IV for free, right? If you think about what a GTA IV Elite bundle might be, you kinda go that far and stop. At least I do. So...regarding anything else as a freebie, it's not needed.

I can also CONFIRM to add insult to injury. THESE ELITES are VERY OLD elites they are trying to sell. Most are made between april and may last year. They are trying to clean them out. Have a look at the dates on them for yourselves.

They think consumers are like developers, if you throw free stuff in, they will do what you want: aka be suckers for the old crappy MS left overs.

So these elites aren't the Jasper units?

So...many...fucking...bundles.

Sometimes I wish I never bought a 360 as early as I did, but I remember that I've never had a RROD and I forget about it.

I used to have a Premium system last 2 weeks which never failed since 2006... And then, suddenly, after 1 week of no playing it at all, it had the RRoD. Way to go Xbox! I don't play with you and you give me RRoD, I play with you and still have RRoD.

Buying another one? F*ck no!
